Tales To Tell In The Dark

The Secret Cave

It was a normal day for me. I was playing my favorite game, Runescape. I was looking through google to find some cool places where I could find some pretty good items on Runescape. There were some articles that involved some weird glitch or cheat engine. 1 of the articles caught my attention. It described a secret cave with level 200+ monsters that dropped extremely rare items like the Christmas cracker, party hats, and dragon claws. I was a level 196, so I thought I was ready for the enemies. I opened the article and the cave was in the wilderness.

The article said, 'The only way to get access to the cave is to have all skills equal to or above level 80. When you have the skills up to level, you have to open the world map and in the search bar, type 'Secret Cave' and the location will point to a random place in the wilderness. The place is different for every player, so don't try to journey with your friends or random players. Place a marker for the spot and go to it. Make sure you are prepared because 3 level 150+ enemies will be on the location of the cave. You have to defeat them and after you defeat them, the ground will open up and the secret cave will be in front of you. Enter the cave if you are ready. If you leave, you will have to defeat the enemies again. When you are inside the cave, the first thing you will notice is 2 Chaos elementals guarding the next door. You have to defeat them to proceed on. I couldn't defeat them and there is no more information beyond this. If you manage to defeat the 2 elementals, post the information in the comments below. Good luck!'

I started getting excited! I started getting ready to go to the cave. All of my skills were level 86+. I typed 'Secret Cave' in the search bar and the location given was in near the rogue's den. I proceeded to walk there. The enemies I had to fight were 3 ice elementals (level 201). They were hard to defeat, but I won. The ground started to shake, and my character fell in a crevice. He landed between 2 Chaos elementals (level 170-178). I was confused by this as I fought them. I knew that the max level for them was 140. I concluded that the cave is glitched and messed up the level numbers. I defeated them. I had to use some food to regain massive health. The door opened. I was so excited because I am going into a place that no other player knows about! I proceeded to open my video recorder to record this moment forever.

As I entered the cave, I noticed that the cave had constantly changing textures. The grounds kept changing to different textures like from the green grass to the burning rock and then to the concrete floors. So were the walls and then ceiling. I saw 3 items laying near the walls. I couldn't tell what 2 of them were, but I knew for a fact that the item closest to me was a Saradomin Godsword! I had wanted this weapon for a long time because I have the other 3 godswords! I went to approach it. As I got closer to it, a static sound kept being magnifyed in sound. I took off my headphones, but I could still hear the sound crystal clear. Was this sound coming from the insides of my head? When I picked up the item, the sound stopped. THANK GOD! But then a demonic voice played.

I heard the voice say, 'You have made it into my lair. Congratulations! It...time to die!' ( the ... is for what I couldn't tell what he said. A greater demon then dropped from the ceiling. His level was 666. He performed all types of attack(range, magic and melee) to kill my character. Every time he landed an attack on my character, blood came out of him. When my character had 94 health left, he used ice barrage to immobilize my character in a block of ice. The greater demon said, 'If you ever tell your experience to anyone, this will happen to you and the people you tell it to!' He then smashed my character into pieces. I turned off my computer.

I called my friend who is a cop to protect me. I have shared my experience with you. Get some people to protect you. The secret cave should stay a secret.
